The High School Play

"Ching-a-ling" was
presented at the Martha-Ellen Auditorium on April 8th, 1920. This
play was a highly amusing comedy, staged by a cast of characters
picked from the whole high school. The curtain rises on a
"bachelor kitchen" scene, with Ching as chief actor, burning the
"blacon and eggs." The two colonels have much animosity toward
each other, but finally become fast friends. Bob and Marjorie
cleverly "hoodwink" their fathers. Mrs. Carroll, who in former
days had been the "bone of contention" between the colonels, is
claimed by Richard Byrd. Ned, a very forgetful, good-looking chap,
elopes with Julia Carroll. "Skinny" Lawyer Baskom helps out the
plot with his sound advice. The whole comedy proves that youth
will have its way.
